"我不喜欢撒谎，所以当我撒谎时，我尽量让它更有趣。"
— Jonathan Winters
Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, people who usually prefer to tell the truth might find themselves in a situation where they feel they need to lie. When they do decide to lie, they choose to make the lie more entertaining or creative. For example, imagine someone who rarely lies but, to get out of a boring party, says they have an emergency involving a loose kangaroo in their backyard. They embellish the story because if they have to lie, they want to make it memorable rather than just a plain excuse. This idea can be useful for people who are generally honest but find it necessary to lie occasionally; if they must lie, making the lie amusing or more detailed can sometimes make the situation lighter and less stressful. However, it's important to do so carefully, to avoid hurting anyone or getting caught in a complicated web of deceit.
